@ervs: "Hello again,
First, thanks for the help with my previous question.
I am working on a page in fusion8.  For some reason the  height jumped to 
about 6 times the needed space. The Width is 805 pixels and the Height is 
9505 pixels  When I try to change the height size, using Layout Properties, 
I get the following message:
"Invalid size.  Due to the positioning of objects, the vertical size should 
be at least 9505 pixels. Do you want to use the smallest acceptable size? "
I don't have anything below the 1600 mark.  If there is something there, I 
don't see it.  How can I delete all this extra space?
Thanks, Kathy "
    @ervs: "Hi Ritch,
Well, I checked the object tree and all objects listed there I can see.  I 
think somehow I clicked "something" that is locking the size.  Do you have 
any other suggestions?

    @jamesjimmy3000atyahoodotcom: "One suggestion:  Are you using a layout region perhaps?
If so, you need to resize it by scrolling to the bottom of the page and 
grabbing the middle "handle" of the layout region and drag it upwards until 
you get to the page size you want and then you can resize the actual page.

Kathy,
You may have inadvertently dropped an item "across the border" onto the
MasterBorder of the page (when you were intending to start it in the Layout
Area).  
In our experience, Fusion is rather sensitive to this and it is too easy to
do.
Here are a couple of tips:
1)  Whenever this happens - don't panic!  Just use the CTRL+Z to "UnDo"
your last action.
2)  When trying to align something in the Layout Area close to the boundary
into the MasterBorder region, you are better off to click NEAR the
MasterBorder, then drag out to size the text box or whatever your placing.
After you do that - use the ARROW KEYS to move the elements exactly where
you want them and then use the mouse to finish resizing the other side of
the element to set the width/height.
This method requires an extra step (and that you interact with the
keyboard), but it will actually be faster and more precise than you can do
with the mouse alone.
Plus it will keep your blood pressure down and your heart from racing as
you see your page go into disarray<g>.
Good luck on your project!

    @ervs: "Hi Charles,
You suggestion made me take a closer look at the placement of all the 
objects on this page.  At the bottom, there is a NOF logo that I must of 
moved out of the bottom border area into the Layout area.
I moved it back and now I can adjust the size of the page with no problem.
Thanks for putting me on the right path.

Glad to have helped out!
I've been bitten by that one before too - but the one that usually got me
was trying to start positioning a page element too close to the upper left
corner.
If you click one pixel too far to the left, the point of origin is set in
the MB - then when you drag out your object it is too big and the MB
expands to attempt to hold it.
Like I said - if that happens, don't panic - just UnDo.
;-)
